65-67 seems to be about the average from what I see when loaded.

I get about 67 with one person and a normal load, and little less when you throw in another guy. I've touched 70 with a light load under optimal conditions.

I have gotten around 70's. This depends on how much stuff you have on board and your filters need to be changed every two years due to ethanol. If you don't change these, it can lead to some expensive work on the motor. If they are getting bad your take off (hull shot/hole shot) whatever...will be slow.

Top speed for me is 67....depending on how much my partner had for breakfast! Usually 65-67 top end but sometimes in the heat of the summer I only get 63-65.

Thats crazy. I fished out of my uncles ZX200 with Yamaha 200 several years ago, and he did allot of tweaking with his setup and the best he got was 67 just like everyone else.

I fish out of a 200 a lot. 65-70 seems about right. The boat performs very well from take off to 60.
